Your interactive guide is designed for people who have heard about meditation but don't know where to begin. To make it easy for you to learn how to meditate, we've created five categories, each of which includes exercises you can try right now.

We are inspired by the living example of great teachers, who have both penetrating insight and a loving heart. "With modern neuroscience, we're now beginning to understand the brain processes that support these wonderful qualities of mind," explains Dr. Rick Hanson. With The Enlightened Brain online course, this pioneering neuropsychologist explores how you can activate these same processes inside your own brain to accelerate your own transformation.
